Google Hits Down Last 5-7 Days

    Hello,

    I run a small media blog. I've been doing OK with hits and earnings, but in the past few days, about a week, things have changed. It seems as if Google has decided to wait days to index pages. Before I was getting indexed in minutes. Nothing has changed on my end, but hits are mainly only coming via twitter etc. Pages do get indexed but since many of the things I post are time sensitive (e.g. TV episode reviews), I'm losing out big time.

    Is there anything going on with Google that might explain the sudden change?

    Thanks

    This post is likely in the wrong location. Sorry.

    News sites, curating websites, aggregators all took a hit with the new google change

    I had to move all my unique content off to it's own domain because my penalties were bad - and I just blog about art and toys and was getting punished

    What Google change? I've obviously missed something big here.

    Another why of getting hits is stumble upon. which can help you indexing as well as in getting required hits. Share you blog posting on stumble upon and get traffic.

    Is there any difference between using Stumble compared to others such as Reddit/Google Buzz/Digg? Do they work the same way for being indexed I mean? Because I've have been using those, but not Stumble.

    Thanks

    I only use stumble upon, it helps us in getting website index. I heard Digg and stumble upon rating have good and solid influence on Google search engine indexing. Now me and friends decided to have account other social bookmarking sites. Let see the difference....

    Thanks. I have been using it for the past few days and the traffic has been great. Things seem to have returned to normal with Google as well.

    Yes stumbleupon is a great way of getting traffic back to your site. Its unique algo guarantees that you will keep on receiving traffic for weeks after the article is published.............

    Stumble upon is not an article publishing site it is a social bookmarking site.
